Birthday card for Pedro

I made this birthday card for my brother in law! This doggie reminded me of their dog Diego. Lol! So cute!

I used Birthday bash for everything.
The sentiment is from Scrappy moms' Simple sentiments set

I also inked the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

I stamped the sentiment with the same ink and embossed it with clear embossing powder. This ink stays wet long enough that you don't need to use embossing ink...very cool!

Thanks for stopping by! There are many more projects to come so you're welcome to become a follower. I'll be sure to follow your blog too.
